Help addressing different domains and/or zones

[Anthony O. Brinson]

A follow-up question, then.  I am trying to do this exact thing, and I 
was curious about the SOA.  
In the main domain you would obviously put the following as the first 
line.

@       IN      SOA     ns.dom1.com. hostmaster.dom1.com.  (

My question is for the second domain would you put 

@       IN      SOA     ns.dom2.com. hostmaster.dom2.com.  (

or would you list the actual name of the DNS server as below

@       IN      SOA     ns.dom1.com. hostmaster.dom1.com.  (

The book (in my opinion) is not completely clear on this.

I am having troubles using nslookup on a new domain.  carissadeason.com

When I run nslookup from an outside nameserver, it checks looks for
www.carissadeason.com.ogse.com instead of www.carissadeason.com.

I am assuming I have done something wrong in my db file.

Thanks for your help.
